Follow this link to the latest International Energy Agency World Energy Outlook 2008 fact sheet.

This lunatic scheme that will be foisted on us must be stopped now. Without coordinated WORLD-WIDE effort Australia will be sacrificing our economy for NOTHING.

Some pertinent lines;

"world primary energy demand expands by 45% between
2006 and 2030 – an average rate of growth of 1.6% per year"

"Fossil fuels account for 80% of the world’s primary energy mix in 2030"

"China and India account for over half of incremental energy demand to 2030"

"almost all of the increase in energy production to 2030 occurs in non-OECD countries"

"Rising global consumption of fossil fuels is still set to drive up greenhouse-gas emissions"

"Global energy-related CO2 emissions are projected to rise from 28 gigatonnes (Gt) in 2006 to 41 Gt in 2030 – an increase of 45%"

"Three-quarters of the projected increase in energy-related CO2 emissions arises in China, India and the Middle East, and 97% in non-OECD countries as a whole."

"Emissions in the OECD reach a peak soon after 2020 and then decline"
